BP 220 Economic and Socialized Housing

Economic and socialized housing- refers to housing units which are within the

affordability level of the average and low-incomeearners which is thirty percent (30%) of the grossfamily income as determined by the NationalEconomic and Development Authority from time totime.

- refers to the government-initiated sites and servicesdevelopment and construction of economic andsocialized housing projects in depressed areas.


The parameters used in formulating the Design Standards are:

A. Protection and safety of life, limb, property and general public welfare.

B. Basic needs of human settlements, enumerated in descending order as follows:1. Water2. Movement and circulation3. Storm drainage4. Solid and liquid waste disposal5. Park/playground6. Power

.


The parameters used in formulating the Design Standards are (continuation):

C. Affordability levels of target market

D. LocationBoth economic and socialized housing projects shall be located within suitable site for housing and outside potential hazard prone and protection areas.


Technical Guidelines and Standards for Subdivisions

Site Criteria

1. Availability of basic needs

2. Conformity with the Zoning Ordinance or Land Use Plan of the City/Municipality

3. Physical Suitability

• must have characteristics assuring healthful, safe and environmentally sound community life.

• stable enough to accommodate foundation load without excessive site works.

• Critical areas (e.g., areas subject to flooding, land slides and stress) must be avoided.

Site Criteria (continuation)

4. AccessibilityThe site must be served by a road that is readily accessible to public transportation lines.


Planning Considerations

Easements

a. Chapter IV, Section 51 of the Water Code of the Philippines on water bodies

b. National Power Corporation (NPC) on transmission linesc. Fault traces as identified by PHIVOLCS per Resolution No.

515, series of 1992d. Right-of-way of other public companies and other entities.e. For projects abutting national roads (primary roads)

adequate easement shall be provided for road including loading and unloading as may be required by national/local government units.

f. Other related laws

Design Parameters

Circulation System• shall comply with the pertinent requirements of BP

344 otherwise known as the Accessibility Law.• planning considerations for circulation layout:

a. Observance of the hierarchy of roads within the subdivision.

b. Conformance to natural topography.c. Consideration for access and safety, e.g., adequate radius,

minimum number of roads at intersections, moderate slope/grade, adequate sight distance, no blind corners, etc.

d. Optimization as to number of lots to lessen area for roads, at the same time enhances community interaction.
